Streaming sensor support?

Hi,

I happened to look at https://5g-ppp.eu/5gcar/, and saw that they describe use cases where one car transmits a video stream showing what is in front of it, to cars behind it. Which got me to think about supporting streaming sensors in our API.

I do not think we should try to invent any new streaming protocol, the idea I got was to use our API as the "control channel" for setting up the video stream (using any established streaming protocol). This could be realized by adding a new value to the "function" key that I have proposed to add to VSS, the value being called e.g. "streamsensor", and the add a new key with the name "streamconfig", having as value a JSON-formatted string containing the data needed to connect to the streaming server.

I hope to get feedback to this idea at the WG meeting today:).
